MAINTENANCE FEE A fee of $592 per annum will be charged in Term 4 to families who are unable to provide 16 hours ‘family participation’ to the School during the year. Eligible activities such as working bees, canteen and classroom help qualify parents for relief from this charge (refer to the ‘Maintenance Fee Guidelines’ on the Parent Portal). An online ‘Maintenance Form’ for each family to record activities can be accessed and edited throughout the year from the Parent Portal. The form can be found by clicking the School Fees tab on the left-hand menu and the form can be found under ‘Links’. Or, click here to record your hours. It is the parent’s responsibility to record each activity undertaken. FOUNDATION – BUILDING FUND A voluntary, tax deductible contribution of $200 per term is requested from each family as a donation to the Oxford Falls Grammar School Foundation. These funds are applied to the building of new facilities. A tax receipt will be issued in July for donations made during the tax year ending 30 June. We thank you for your donation.
